Kelvin Gastelum defeated Vitor Belfort, even if the record books will no longer officially say so.
In March’s UFC Fight Night 106 headliner, Gastelum (13-2 MMA, 8-2 UFC) ventured to Brazil and beat local star and former champ Vitor Belfort (25-13 MMA, 14-9 UFC) via first-round TKO. However, Gastelum tested positive for carboxy-tetrahydrocannabinol(otherwise known as “THC,” a metabolite found in marijuana) in a sample collected on the day of the event, which aired March 11 on FS1 from Fortaleza.
The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), the UFC’s anti-doping partner, announced Gastelum’s potential positive test on April 6. The Superior Tribunal de Justica Desportiva do MMA (STJDMMA) – Brazilian Superior Justice Court of MMA – today confirmed it’s reached an agreement with Gastelum. Combatefirst reported it.
